Morpheus8 for Acne
Morpheus8 for Acne Scars in Wylie, TX
Acne scars can occur during puberty and extend into adulthood. Some people even obtain acne scars in their 20’s and 30’s. Many patients struggle to get rid of acne scars with other treatment options and have found that they do not tend to fade on their own. Microneedling has become a popular treatment and is a non-surgical and non-invasive procedure for the reduction or getting rid of acne scars, including boxcar, keloid, and ice pick scarring. Morpheus8 uses the latest micro-needling technology that penetrates deep into the skin to eliminate scarring.
Dr. Sindhu Sunkara Ganti uses the industry-leading Morpheus8 device to harness the success of micro-needling and combines this with the healing power of radiofrequency energy (RF).
Treat your acne scarring and uneven skin in the comfort of our cosmetic offices in Wylie, TX.
How Morpheus8 Treats Treats Acne Scars
Morpheus8 is an advanced radiofrequency (RF) fractional medical micro-needling treatment that helps build and smooth damaged, uneven skin.
This is what you can expect during your Morpheus8 acne treatment:
- Dr. Sindhu Sunkara Ganti will penetrate your skin with the Morpehus8 device and create subdermal micro-wounds.
- Waves of RF energy are then sent out from the machine to enhance the healing process.
- This combination of technology triggers a series of naturally occurring actions like the same kind of healing that takes place when experiencing a wound to your skin.
- Your cells are regenerated quickly and begin to form new tissues, including collagen.
It’s normal to experience any of these sensations due to the RF heat energy that warms the deeper layer of your skin. The feelings should not be painful.
